Pics of me lettering a crane around '87. It was a fun one, double shade with outlines and having to go in and out of all those bumps, and note the can of bug spray to keep down the fruit flies from the banana warehouse next door and the deerflies from the swamp down the street. Then I ran across it again, 27 years later, sitting in a boatyard. The lettering held up better than the factory paint.

Well done and a very good example of what signs used to be of how we made them ALL to last.
